Did you restart the SA daemon?

Thanks for that, Jennifer

I see how this is supposed to work, but I have placed the weeds.cf file
in
/etc/mail/spamassassin and made sure it has read access for everybody.

I then ran
spamassassin < mymessage.eml > result.txt

And the rules were not applied. I have attached the message if you want
to
verify. Maybe it's just me being stupid, but my other rulesets like
backhair and chickenpox applied in the same fashion work just fine.
